I learn to accept myself as I am, with a new sense of the miracles of sobriety and serenity.

I renew hope, regenerate faith, and regain the dignity of self-respect. I discover the word “and” in the phrase “and when we were wrong, promptly admitted it.”Reassured that I am no longer always wrong,

With the self-discipline and insight gained from practicing Step Ten, I begin to know the gratifications of sobriety — not as mere abstinence from alcohol, but as recovery in every department of my life.

Good morning Sky friends 🌤️ sun isn’t up here yet, still early. 4:41 am, still dealing with feeling like shit, but I’ve got my spooky season lights on and my beach fireplace on in the background. Roku tv’s have some cool stuff. I love my cozy space😁

Whatever you’re eating looks absolutely delicious! Beef stew?

I feel like I’m talking/sounding weird or “off” right now— I’m going through a lot of anxiety, some trauma flashbacks, and exhaustion from all the socializing and noise and other stuff. So I apologize 😔

Gratitude Yesterday/Today
1) Seeing people I hadn’t seen in a long while
2) Hearing my brother’s speech that had a good mix of both funny and heartfelt
3) I didn’t have any alcohol cravings 😁
4) I still have a hot chocolate packet I haven’t made yet (Nestle with mini marshmallows)

Gratitude Today

1) Seeing my brother and sister in law for the first time since their wedding a year ago
2) The weather wasn’t too warm
3) The food at the party was delicious
4) Hearing all the funny roasts from a few of my dads friends were hilarious

Oh, one more thing. Every time Dan Orlovsky says the word schematically, make it a drinking game 😂😂

Needless to say, I’m going to be getting some rest and recharging. And I woke up congested as hell so another reason to stay in bed (on top of a fibromyalgia flare Im putting up with this other shit too) 😔😔😔

I went into high masking mode and my adrenaline kicked in and it didn’t take me long to introduce myself to others and crack jokes and shit like that. For over three hours, I was on that high masking. But I still had a nice time anyway and just rolled with it

Good afternoon Sky friends 🌤️ a busy day it was yesterday and just the whole weekend, but particularly yesterday. My dad celebrated his 80th birthday and there was a nice party for him with delicious food, a lovely guitar player, plus my brother and sister in law are visiting 😁

Holy bananas, how many Eagles players have gone down with injuries today?

2 hours until my brother comes to get me for the party.

Anxiety= through the roof

Physically= feeling like ass

Mood cycles= they’re there

But hanging in there. It’ll be good to see my brother and sister in law and try to have a fun time.

Ooh boy, it’s Bugsy who comes to replace Lara. Totally forgot about that part. The look on Hannah’s face said everything

Anyway. Good evening, Sky friends 💫🌙✨

It’s not a Below Deck picnic without some kind of incident. This time, it was broken glass in a garbage bag and it cut Malia’s leg. And now that Lara’s gone, I forget who the new stew is that comes to replace her.

I may not be having the best time right now, but rewatching season 5 of BDM, Ben and Jerry’s chocolate fudge brownie ice cream, and Reese’s big cup caramel will help a bit.

And I still hate Lara.
